    The trip planned area covered the intent of tour seeing different interesting places but limitations of the trip was restricting the full benefit 1-Tour guides in general have limited knowledge and most with poor English not sure what was the issue 2-Hotels were not what we expected specifically in San Cristobal (Casa Vieja) and Merida (Mision de Fray Diego ) although location was good the rest were good 3-Cancelled the fiist day to anthropology Museum (explanation about pollution ?! ) 4-The tours have no relation to Touradar so for example one lunch was included and the guide/driver said after we asked said that he will give us 300 Pesos for lunch allowance ( very unusual) 5-With too many different guides and number of people in the tours many were by ourselves like in Chichen Itza the guide decided less than one hour was enough and can give us more time on our own in other word the real problem in our mind is the filling the spots rather than knowing people and keep them regularly 6-It was really great areas to visit and wonderful people and country to visit for the first time I think review of the trip with same guide and driver for at least around same area will be beneficial and better overview understanding

    This was one of the best holidays I have been on. Mexico was amazing, Tour Radar was very easy to deal with especially due to the fact that the original holiday was booked during Covid so it was postponed. The tour guides on each tour were amazing and the communication was very easy. Would totally use Tour Radar again for booking holidays

    In general a great tour. However, it is worth to note that the panoramic city tours are just a few minutes by car. You mostly have afternoon evenings for free and should organize yourself to discover the cities. (e.g. free walking tour). Also the drive to Palenque was early because another group had to turn back to San Cristobal, this was inconvenient and can be planned better.

    Communication and quality of tour guide need to improve. We nearly missed our flight due to poor communication and arrangement as transport failed to turn up and we have to call for taxi to airport and incurred additional cost to us. Some of the hotel also needs improvement as it is too basic n no privacy. Room door is not closing fully n air conditioning leaking. Transport vehicle also needs improving as some of the van r not comfortable. Regards Unhappy travelers

    During the 10 days we had changing guides and also other drivers. Maybe it was because of the time, but except for two days we had private tours- was very cool :) All guides were super friendly and helpful. In addition, they all told a lot about the history of the country and the Maya. Hotels were top and the breakfast was great everywhere. Although it is currently rainy season, we were very lucky with the weather. Except for a shower during the boat tour we stayed dry. You definitely need cash and especially a lot of change. Super trip - highly recommended!

    This tour was absolutely incredible. All the tour guides were enthusiastic and punctual with a great sense of humour. I felt very safe the whole time and always had a contact if I needed help. It was a great way to cover so much of Mexico in a short time.

    Wow, it's like travelling to a whole different world. It's highly recommended if you like ancient sites. My wife said Mexican food was the best food she tried in years... very delicious, we really loved the ancient Aztec and Mayan ruins, Cenotes, and ending in Cancun was amazing. We were given a time to meet the tour guide every day in morning, and each location had different tour guides. We felt safe. Just a word of caution, bring pepto bismol for travellers diarrhea. My wife had 3 days of diarrhea/vomiting, and I had 9 days... also bring extra underwear. I got it from drinking horchata in a rural place (Chiapas near Ocosingo) and my wife got it in Mexico City at a buffet (maybe the coffee) so maybe it really was the drink/water for Montezuma's Revenge. Overall, would highly recommend, Mexico is a wonderful place and amazing place to visit! Memories forever.
